Does anyone know where the QT (4.7) headers and libraries are located (i.e. paths) on the mac?

For all my trying, I just can't find the damn things.

Thanks, Ben.

For me, it looks like this:

/usr/include

/Library/Frameworks

/Developer/Tools/Qt

/usr/local/Qt4.7

/Developer/Applications/Qt/plugins

I found this in the file qtdirs.out which happened to lie in my root. Not sure about when it was generated, either during Qt's installation or during PyQt's installation.

The easy way to find these things is to use the mdfind -name command. I don’t know what QT’s headers are called, but if you are looking for, say qt4.h, run the following Terminal command:

mdfind -name qt4.h

This will use Spotlight to find all indexed files named qt4.h.

Alternatively, you can try regular Spotlight (the magnifying glass icon in the upper-right corner), however, this does not show you all files that Spotlight knows about. The command-line mdfind will show you those files.
